Wolf Blitzer is a douchebag.

@NobelMan1000 im muslim and yet sadly im going to have to agree almost completely with your comment. Although it is pretty offensive how u group all muslims as ignorant, i can see where you're coming from but please try to understand how some other openminded muslim intellectual would feel if you put such statements towards them. As for your view on where the Jews shouldve been placed after their displacement by the Nazis- i agree 100%. Why(/how!) did the end up anywhre in middle east?

Peace.

I was late learning about Norman Finkelstein. Can't get enough of him. Would love to see him talk about some other topics as well. Not sure he has surpassed Chomsky, but we are lucky to have him.

finkelstein and chomsky are just the best. the BEST at intellectual pwnage. In a way finkelstein might even be better which is saying a LOT

Muslims are ignorant. There is no really a Palestinian Arab state. Arafat was Egyptian. The Land of Israel belongs only to the People of Israel, the Jewish people. Lets the Muslims tribes eat themselves in "revolutions".

LOL. Blitzer looks uber-annoyed 3:15-3:31

[ialrai]

wolf blittzer is a fucking moron

[elsblaugranas]

Blitzer thinks like a pig, and looks like a pig. Finkelstein thinks like an intellectual, and looks like an intellectual. Can't believe these two shared the same platform..it's like a football game between Micronesia and Brazil.

@USAneedsaChange i agree with u about Muslims and how ignorant they are. but one thing i don't really understand is that why the Zionist Jews have made their country in some one else's land ! after all the Arabs had nothing to do with holocaust. so it should be the Germans who has to give them a piece of their own land to make a country.

Meanwhile, Mr Blitzer goes on to a career hosting TV shows on mainstream US -standard bearer of freedom of speech® - media whereas Mr. Finkelstein is denied tenure at i.e. hounded out of his university. Moreover, Mr. Finkelstein, like fellow truth teller and fact furnisher Noam Chomsky, is kept at arms length by said media and was denied entry to Israel -The Only Democracy in the Middle East™ not to mention - Homeland of the Jews™.
